Carmen, my elderly Puerto Rican neighbor, is in the hospital again, so I'm checking in on her cat, Solé. Every time I come back, she's managed to knock her automatic water dispensing bowl somewhere else across the kitchen, even after I turned on QVC to keep her company. Ungrateful feline.
Another all-time favorite opening, from an all-time favorite film. Withnail & I using King Curtis's live version of "Whiter Shade of Pale" to great effect. youtu.be/KQjiZy79YXs?...

Starting a Film-A-Day* challenge for September; today’s prompt was Favourite Opening Sequence. If there's ever a time I don't choke on my own laughs at the opening to Hot Rod, you know I've been replaced by an alien shapeshifter 😂 *We'll be doubling up some days as we have a lot planned in Sept
If socialism work so well, how come it hasn't once successfully stolen 65 billion barrels of oil from a capitalist country to keep itself afloat? 🤔
None. They all got what they deserved.
Name a character who deserved better.
"As a youth, I used to weep in butcher's shops" is an immaculate line.
Saved the girl working at the liquor store by getting her away from some dude with a Suzuki GSX explaining lunar phases to her (incorrectly), and then decided to take a picture of the moon (in case no one else on the planet got one). The simple "enhance" filter turned it into a wicked shot.

Bloodland by @thedrawist.bsky.social and @bclaymoore.bsky.social is the coolest comic I've read this year. Vampires have taken over the government behind a stage president and you are following multiple resistance groups. Such a great story and I cant wait until it returns in January.
People now seem to think the New York Times is conservative, which it isn't. But that's the natural consequence of being so devoted to a style guide that obsesses over journalistic objectivity, and letting Right-leaning moderates round off the sharper edges in editorials.
Powercat with great seats spotted on the Southside, watching Tristan Peters hit a homer for the 5th game in a row. #emaw
I spent a few minutes following two raccoons through the parking lot at around 3:30 am. One of them twice emerged from between cars to stop and look at me, wondering what my problem was. Derailed my work night completely.
SCOTUS told Trump he could go ahead with his mail-in voting suppression, as they won't be able to determine if it's really going to harm the states it targets until the harm is actually done? An unqualified, politically biased, morally bankrupt SCOTUS could be the final nail in Democracy's coffin.
Hey, my sister and I are on the back row. We know how to make sure we're seen. We also might have been the last Gooners to leave the bar, but that's a family thing.
75 sickos 🥲
I know when Danny DeVito dies, the Oscar tribute will probably show a clip of him from Throw Momma From the Train and then maybe a shot from Cuckoo's Nest of him smiling, but what they should show is him crawling out of the couch naked and oiled up from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Genius.

How's come no one told me about James the Seventh? She's like some freaky postmodern Kate Bush. I love her. youtu.be/sp7mK-Buwkc?...

Just as I was telling the kid what a shitty umpire Alan Porter is, his crew throws Davis Martin out of the game because the ball was wet. Clown show.
I'll still focus on my newsletter, but my comics YouTube channel may slide for a while. I started posting edited videos of old baseball games on a new channel as a diversion, and in two months, the numbers are insane compared to my eight year-old writing channel. I get it, universe.
My god. How is it possible that every woman associated with MAGA looks like something from a 70s sci-fi horror film? Did this woman go to the MAGA stylist and ask for the "Sex Doll"? Terrifying.
As Carl lay there thinking about all of the life choices that led him to this point, his biggest regret was trusting that stupid cowboy and his space man friend.
For some reason I decided to stream HALL PASS tonight. I'm not sure I've ever watched a more unintentionally offensive movie. It's so fucking awful. You could take the cast and make 1,000 better movies without trying.
It is SHOCKING that Mike Lindell got his ass kicked in his primary and contends the election was rigged. SHOCKING
Getting close to the finish line on the long overdue GREAT BIG HAWAIIAN DICK.
